Amber Linnekin | Heart for orphans
Amber Linnekin
Amber lives in Williamsburg, Virginia with her husband, Ryan, and two children, Eli and Addie. Their oldest daughter, Natalie is a senior at the University of Mary Washington.
After an 18-year career in banking, Amber left to follow her passion in 2019. She is now the Director of Donor Relations at Heart for Orphans. For as long as she can remember, she has been drawn to helping the less fortunate, particularly children that are in situations far outside of their control! Taking the relationship building skills she developed in banking combined with her tremendous compassion for children, the role is a great fit!
Heart for Orphans is a non-profit in Williamsburg that serves orphans in Ukraine, Belarus and Kenya. They provide loving, nurturing, Christ-centered transition homes, foster support, and outreach programs to kids right where they are at.
All over the world, millions of children are living in orphanages and sadly, less than one percent will ever be adopted. In most of the areas Heart for Orphans works, teens age out of the orphanage at the age of 16. Unbelievably, with few possessions, they are turned out onto the streets to fend for themselves.
Within just two years of leaving the orphanage in Ukraine, it is estimated that:
30% will become addicted to drugs
60% of the girls will turn to prostitution
70% of the boys will turn to crime
15% will commit suicide
Amber first visited Ukraine with Heart for Orphans in 2013. On that trip, her heart was broken when she looked into the eyes of the sweet kids. As she saw their blank stares of hopelessness, something stirred in her heart! She came home and immediately began helping Heart for Orphans by volunteering. She knew that, as long as there was an orphan problem, she could not turn away.
Fast forward 8 years, and she is now playing an instrumental role in bringing them to a place of healing and helping to put them on a path to success.
